Looks like the graphics card has just died. Have you tried resetting the SMC?

    I'm using a MacBook Pro mid 2010 with the latest Mac Os X El Capitan.

    Today, when seeing images form an external drive the Mac froze with the following purple screen:

    enter image description here

    I had to restart the computer.

    Anybody experienced this before?

      To me, it looks like you graphics crapped out on you. Do you know if you have a dedicated graphics or integrated?
